Or the architect of the "unsinkable" Titanic, Mr. Andrews, going down with it when it sank.

Yes they took risks doing this but they’re still people with families and friends who love them and want them home. I hope they are not suffering. Just goes to show how vast our oceans are. They’re somewhere adrift amongst the titanic yet that is merely a grain of sand in the vastness of the ocean floor. It’s hard to even comprehend. I didn’t really understand the vastness of the ocean until the MH370 disappearance

I mean if you’re at the bottom of the ocean with no wah to track you from above it could’ve been 2000 hours and it wouldn’t matter. I’d rather we all die together, holding hands, than murder them all and die a week later with their literal rotting corpses next to me. Can you even imagine the smell.

Although well-intentioned, this kind of tourism should stop. The parallels drawn in other posts to Gettysburg, etc., aren't the same because those are far more accessible- no great wealth required.

Why should it stop? These people spent their own money and went in voluntarily having assessed the risks and resolved them to their satisfaction. Presumably, with the kind of money the spent on a frolic, they were pretty sophisticated.

If it turns out they guessed wrong, that’s on them. People have a right to decide things for themselves.

Great, but what about the people who are rescuing them? and the taxpayers paying that bill? It's not all about the people who went.

You have a valid point about the rescuers but not the tax money spent. That is not an important consideration when we are talking about peoples' lives. Regardless of what you think got them into that situation.

You people are soulless a$$holes.

Exploration and discovery are not without risk be it on the ocean floor or in space.

after a certain number of days - i assume they won't keep looking. is there any point in finding the vessel once weeks have passed? even if they do find its location - i don't think there is any way to raise it.

Can a radar on a boat even identify something that far down? Or do you mean researchers might send down an unmanned device to look for it.

no idea how they are searching the depths. i really think we're never going to find them and will just have to assume what happened.

Post article had a good summary of how they are searching the depths (and why they can't bring it up from the bottom if found there)
There's also the point that those 7 surfacing safety features may have worked and they still can't find it because the ocean is just that big. If everyone is unconscious they are locked in and will have no way to open the door or call for help

The door bolts from the outside. They may be on the surface looking out at clear skies while they suffocate
